Excerpt:
This day winding down now
At God speeded summer’s end
In the torrent salmon sun,
On my sea shaken house
On a breakneck of rocks
Tangled with chirrup and fruit.

Further information: This was the prologue to Dylan’s Collected Poems 1934-1952.

‘I set myself, foolishly perhaps, a most difficult task: The prologue is in two verses…of 51 lines each. And the second verse rhymes backward with the first. The first and last line of the poem rhyme; the second and the last but one and so on and so on’.
